Chowrastha or the Mall is the hub of the town where every visitor is seen taking a frantic walk and relaxing their fatigued heads. In the local dialect, Chowrastha means the place where four roads meet. Through narrow roads ascending, between shops inviting with bright colored local ornaments, handicrafts, curios reaches a huge flat platform surrounded by benches for people to sit. The journey is revitalizing with the view of the Kanchenjunga standing with all its might.

Just 1.5 kilometers downhill from Chaurastha is the Bhutia Bustee Tibetan Monastery. In early days the monastery belonged to the Red Sect of Buddhist Lamas. The origin of the name Darjeeling is linked to this monastery. 'Dorje' means thunderbolt in Tibetan and 'Ling' means resting place, thus 'Place' of the 'Thunderbolt', which was the name of the monastery.
